"If you are strong enough, you must constantly challenge the boundaries of your comfort zone."
And so I take little sojourns into the unknown.
***
This time I am going into a life that is ideologically different from mine. Not that I have an ideology in any form - my life is just one big mishmash of continuously evolving thoughts.
But there is a certain routine - that I do brush my teeth everyday. That I use a minimum of 5 buckets of water a day. That I drink tea or coffee. That I use a pillow. That I sleep indoors. Etc etc
All of these routines, all socially-learnt - govern my urban settled life.
On my last trip to the most enchanting city of the world - Banaras, I lived inside the heart of religious traditions and rituals. And was completely colored and soaked in the spirit of that life for 2 years.
Now, on this trip, I will do something else ...
My influencers have been Michael Asher who led me to Wilfred Thesiger.... and so I hope to taste the life that says "True wealth lies in living a nomadic life. Those who settle down lose their identity".
